Monitor Climatic Conditions for Reliable Coating Application
By simultaneously monitoring air temperature, surface temperature, relative humidity, dew point, and other environmental parameters, it enables inspectors and contractors to determine whether conditions are suitable for painting in accordance with international standards.
Elcometer 319 eliminates the need for separate thermometers, hygrometers, and dew point charts, allowing inspectors to make faster decisions while improving inspection accuracy and documentation.
It simultaneously measures and records relative humidity (RH), ambient air temperature (Ta), surface temperature (Ts), dew point temperature (Td), Delta T (TΔ), dry bulb temperature (Tdb), wet bulb temperature (Twb), and specific humidity. These measurements help ensure environmental conditions meet coating manufacturer specifications before and during application.
